We have officially had the flu in our home for a couple of weeks. Joshua was first, then Jacob, then Paul, then Jackson, now it’s Ben and Meredith. There are times when a virus comes and will hit everyone at once. This isn’t one of those times…it’s taking it’s sweet time. As it turns out, the week before Joshua got…

It’s Snowing!!
I went to pick the phone up and call my mom this morning to tell her how excited the children were. I hate when I do that…but, I know what she is seeing is far more wonderful than snow. For now, and for me, this is just beautiful and peaceful. I’m thinking chicken tortilla soup is in our future today.…
Sunday Afternoon
I’m hearing colder, nasty weather is headed our way this week. If for only a milder, January afternoon, we threw open the windows and enjoyed the fresh air floating through the house. It didn’t last long, we started getting too cold. For those hours, it was glorious! Psalm 100 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the…
Updates on House
I’m so glad this work isn’t dependent on me these days! I can feel this third trimester this week. Our little one is stretching and kicking- I look forward to warm baths and putting my feet up! While I am working on smaller projects, I’m so thankful for the work being done in the house. These are pictures from yesterday:…

And Another…
I’ve been trying to talk Jon into losing this tooth, practically forever. I was hoping he would be our first to lose both front top teeth for Christmas. It just wasn’t meant to be. Sad, I know. He went to Joshua over the weekend and asked him to pull it for him. I guess it had finally decided it was…
I Can’t Remember …
if I shared these gifts, or not! This has been one of the best Christmas gifts we have given our children in some time! The ants stay busy and provide spiritual lessons for our family. Ants work hard! It just happens that the week before the caterpillars arrived, we were reading about the life cycle of a butterfly. When they…
In the Mornings…
even in the cold, when I go out into the yard, the girls run to the fence to greet me… I love our chickens!
It’s Finished…
At least the outside. (This is the metal bender that has been in our yard the better part of the year…I’m wondering if it might be gone soon??) We also have a new door for the inner part of the basement. THAT is a huge improvement. It still needs paint and hardware but it’s up, and in place and just…

Tuesday Update…
Yep. We’re running a little behind on the updates. Tuesday was our monthly fellowship meeting. We’ve decided to cancel most of the more recent meetings since our home is one big construction zone. This time, we bit the bullet and pushed forward. Courtney made signs for the places we thought might not be safe for visitors. I’m so glad we…
